"Poll question: Parents, what is your stance on having your kids drop nigga bombs?"
That word was a no-go under any circumstances in my house growing up.
At this point I'm curious where parents are standing with that, I ask because it just occurred to me that we might be on the verge of slowly phasing out that word from our lexicon(not mad at that really)

Yes: its a term of endearment, its a family heirloom

if my children are freely running around referring to people as "niggas", I've failed as a parent. Hell, anyone that works for me who uses the word(if I hear it) wont be taken seriously.

the wife and I have used it out of disgust and it usually slips out, but in general that ain't said round chea.
Growing up in a borderline militant Pro-Black household it damned sure wasn't said except to explain what whitey really thinks of you and what he calls you behind your back.
I seem to recall my stepfather gettin irritated with George Jefferson saying it a time or two.

The teens say it occasionally. I think it would be inappropriate for me to tell them not to on account of my being white. It bugs the shit out of their mom though.
